Transcriptional implications of intragenic DNA methylation in the oestrogen receptor alpha gene in breast cancer cells and tissues (2015)
Journal Article
Shenker, N., Flower, K., Wilhelm-Benartzi, C., Dai, W., Bell, E., Gore, E., …Flanagan, J. (2015). Transcriptional implications of intragenic DNA methylation in the oestrogen receptor alpha gene in breast cancer cells and tissues. BMC Cancer, 15(1), Article 337. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-015-1335-5

Background DNA methylation variability regions (MVRs) across the oestrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) gene have been identified in peripheral blood cells from breast cancer patients and healthy individuals. In contrast to promoter methylation, gene body m...

DNA Methylation Profiling using Infinium Methylation Assay (2013)
Journal Article
Zeller, C., Masrour, N., Patel, N., Dai, W., Wilhelm-Benartzi, C., & Brown, R. (2013). DNA Methylation Profiling using Infinium Methylation Assay. Bio-protocol, 3(10), Article e777. https://doi.org/10.21769/bioprotoc.777

The Infinium Human Methylation 450 BeadChip technology allows the rapid quantitative DNA methylation analysis of more than 485,000 CpG dinucleotides located across the genome. The method utilizes sodium bisulfite treatment of genomic DNA to convert u... Read More about DNA Methylation Profiling using Infinium Methylation Assay.
